CVE-2002-1976

Name	CVE-2002-1976
Description	ifconfig, when used on the Linux kernel 2.2 and later, does not report when the network interface is in promiscuous mode if it was put in promiscuous mode using PACKET_MR_PROMISC, which could allow attackers to sniff the network without detection, as demonstrated using libpcap.
Source	CVE (at NVD; CERT, LWN, oss-sec, fulldisc, Red Hat, Ubuntu, Gentoo, SUSE bugzilla/CVE, GitHub advisories/code/issues, web search, more)

This seems to be a misunderstanding of what the PROMISC flag
is about. ifconfig reports properly when it is set using
"ifconfig promisc".
